Universal Sets International Rollout Of Alex Gibney Documentary ‘Musk’

Universal International has announced overseas cinema dates for Alex Gibney’s four-hour documentary *Musk*, beginning in the UK on 15 January. The rollout brings the film to several major markets after its US release, and gives audiences outside the US a chance to see a film that has drawn public criticism from Elon Musk.

The documentary opened in the US through Bleecker Street on 9 October and had taken $730,000 by Wednesday. It expanded from four cinemas in its first weekend to 472 in its second, then played at 63 in its third; the article says this reflects the film’s long running time and the distributor’s limited theatrical runs, rather than pressure from Musk. Further international dates are expected, and the film is ultimately due to stream on HBO.
